I joined the department's Social and Political Theory Program in March of 2007. Before this I completed an MA in political science at Leiden University and an M.Phil. in economics at the Tinbergen Institute. I also taught for a year at Leiden University's political science deparment.

My main research interest is idea of lotteries as a theory of justice. My primary supervisor is Bob Goodin.
